If I email someone at a competitive firm, will it get back to my current firm?
I’m a little more than a year in as a principal. There was a mismatch between expected coverage and actual coverage and I’m not too happy about it.
If I email someone who I know is hiring at a peer/competitive firm, will it get back to my current firm? If that happened I would be toast
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some key points to consider:
In summary, while reaching out to a competitive firm is not inherently wrong, it must be done carefully to ensure it doesn't get back to your current firm. Use your personal email and be discreet in your communications.

It depends how much you trust that firm and the people you're speaking with. Generally, I think most folks are pretty discreet so I wouldn't worry too much. Obviously don't use your firm email for recruiting and keep it discreet.
